EMPRESS EUGENaE,s GROWN.
The Imperial Baubie in POssesSio
of New York Jeweler.

The Imperial BaubIe in Possession
of IA New York Jeweler.
New York Journal
TIE Empress Eugenies crown" said a
prominent Broadway jeweler yesterday to
a Journal reporter, as he held up diamond
decked crown.
This interesting and valuable souvenir
of the Neapoleonic dynasty has most in
teresting history, and the manner in which
it came into the possession of a Yankee
jeweler is most unique and remarkable
story. a.
Shortly before the Waterloo of Sedan the
empress came to the conclusion that the
old crowns lying around the house were
hardly up to the requirements of the latest
styles in crowns, and she decided to have a
new one made; and so she went to Duri-
quet the leading jeweler of the gay city.
and ordered him to get up crown entirely
of diamonds, beside which all the other
crowns of the effete monarchs would pale
their Insignificant fires.
The empress had the usual royal disre-
gard of other peoples money, and told him
not to mind the expense. The crown in
the Broadway jewelers. window was the re-
suit.
The empress thought the crown the
incest one she had ever worn but was finally
obliged to part with it after many years.
She kept it, in fact, until after her son,
Louis, was killed while fighting the Zulus.
Then, deSpairing of further use for the in
sigma of her royal rank, the costly toy was
returned to its maker at the original price.
$40, 600.
Duriquet was Jealous loyalist and ad-
herent OF the house of Bonaparte, and pre-
served it Sacredly as a relic of the monarchy
until one day an intimate friend gave Duri-
quet a surprise party by offering to buy the
crown just as it was and making an advance
Oh the price paid by the empress. The
crown was sent to the Americans hotel,
and few days after was brought by him
to the United States.
The gentleman was well known man
about town, and especially noted as an
opera goer at the Acadamy during Col
Mapleson's management. He was said to
have been an especial admirer of a prima
DONNA and after having for a long time
paid her assiduouS attention he one day
sent a letter to the fair prima donna offer
ing to place the historic crown upon her
brow.
She showed the letter to her husband and
he intimated indirectly to his wife's adorer
that he had best transfer his aged affections
to more congenal soil.
The news that the prima donna was
welded was news to the wealthy owner of
the crown. and on the confirmation of its
truth he was taken seriously ill, and has
since been a confirmed invalid. Recently
he has placed the tiara in the hands of the
jeweler mentioned to dispose of.
The jeweler yesterday showed the pre-
cious buable to Journal reporter. 1t is
composed of 2, 600 fine-cut old mine stones
set in old style silver, with gold lining, the
stones averaging from one-Quarter carat to
eight carats each. The center stone in
front is fifteen caratS weight.
The crown is twenty inches in circumfer-
ence designed in a wreath of violet leaves,
with blossom of the violets as a center
ornament. in the center of which Is the fif-
teen carat gem.
